7:00 pm
slack for not knowing immediately who attacked our embassy on 9/11 and killed our people. within hours certainly within a couple of days as the facts' merged the administration must have known what really happened but they stuck stubbornly to their implausible explanation that the antimuslim movie was what sparked the flame that claimed the lives of our four americans. because of that willful ignorance we were the first to call it benghazi gate. >> there is no justification. none at all for responding to this video with violence. >> in fact, this was not a preplanned premeditated attack. >> i would say yes, they were killed in the course of a terrorist attack on our embassy. >> we have reports that white house said today that the attacks in libya were terrorist attacks. >> we are still doing an investigation there are going to be different circumstances
7:01 pm
in different countries so i don't want to speak to something until we have all of the information. >> i have first hand experience in that country with all of the anarchy and all of the mobs and appears to by an al-qaeda or terrorist professional attack. a coordinated combined arms attack and ambush on the consulate. >> what happened in benghazi was a terrorist attack. >> geraldo: call it benghazi gate. the question of what the obama administration knew about the true nature of the assault that killed our ambassador chris stevens and the three other brave americans and when they knew it. >> there are no words that excuse the killing of innocents. there is no video that justifies an attack on an embassy. >> it was a terrorist attack. the reason i think it clearly was a terrorist attack is because a group of terrorists obviously conducted that attack on the consulate. and against our individuals. >> ambassador rice should resign but also we should investigate and find out how high up this went and and i
7:02 pm
would hope the administration would voluntarily come forward and say whey they gave out this false information when they had to know there was so much more out there and yet they wanted to rule out terrorism from the start. >> geraldo: calling for ambassador rice's administration. what did the administration know and when can they know it? >> john: issa is on the phone from his home state of georgia. what do you think of peter king's call for ambassador rice to resign? >> i think ambassador vice a talented lady who may be a fall person for she would have only said what the administration confirmd that she could say and we know with from what mr. clapper said the dni director that they initially did think it was an unorganized gang and spontaneous mob but immediately learned facts that led them to believe it was a terrorist
7:03 pm
attack including some individuals affiliated with or directly responsible to al-qaeda. the issue when did the administration know and what did they know and did they protect or fail to protect chris stevens in his capacity. and you have to remember, geraldo, when the diary was uncovered, it was quoted as having an entry that said chris stevens wrote he said he was al-qaeda's number hit list and thought that his life was in danger. what we have asked for and hope we will get from the secretary of state is all of the communiques from the embassy and the consulate in libya to the administration and to the secretary of state to find out if they knew what mr. stevens felt and if they did why they did not do more to protect him. >> geraldo: senator isakson stand by, mario diaz villard have with us from tampa. do you think an issue politically speaking now, put aside the substance of the terrible issue in benghazi,
7:04 pm
libya. do you think an issue like benghazi gate can make a difference in a state like florida? >> not only in florida. the reality this is a serious issue. this is not just a small political mistake. an administration that it looks like purposely held back information from the american people. looks like they purposely misled and gave out false information to the press and to the american people knowing that what they were saying was not true. this is pretty serious and again not only is that serious on its own but then the fact that you are dealing with four american patriots that were fascinated and -- assassinated and that is what they were playing around with. this is serious stuff. not just a little mistake and misspoken word. a coverup when you have americans murdered and it looks like the administration knew that it was is terrorists and for some reason they refused to tell the american people the truth. actually let me correct myself. they not only refused to tell the american people the truth
7:05 pm
they were telling them something that they knew was blatantly false on the murder of four americans. this is serious stuff. >> congressman diaz villard, one second. i will go to senator isakson on the phone from georgia. senator, do you accept congressman diaz villard's characteristickization of benghazi gate as a quote unquote coverup? >> it appears to be because the president of the united states is the woman person yet to acknowledge it was a terrorist -- is the only person to acknowledge it was a terrorist attack. why he will not do it i do not know. >> geraldo: what details would you like from senator clinton, i mean secretary of state clinton? >> we would like to see any communications from chris stevens or any other member of the embassy or consulate in libya leading up to the days of the attack on 9/11 if in fact the information in the diary is correct it has been reported, i cannot believe that they did
7:06 pm
not have earlier warning that this attack was going to take place. shoe so you are not going to wait for the fbi then, senator? >> no. and i'm a signatory on the letter. i wanted to make this clear, geraldo. we voted in the committee on the 18th of september to send the letter. it was not sent until the 27th. between the 18th and 27th the information came out about the diary that is when senator corker of tennessee and myself sent the letter asking for the communiques. we believe if chris stevens' diary is correct he sent information to the administration and shelling and they failedsmith failed to to do what they should have done to protect the ambassador. >> can this affect the vote turnout and total in florida? >> i think so. when you look at the bush administration, a moment was katrina. when the american people thought that the administration
quote
7:07 pm
was not properly handling katrina. this so me is potentially much more serious and much more devastating because not only is it -- it is either total incompetentence or worse so i don't know which you want to call it. say that they were totally incompetent and didn't know what it was and one person wasn't speaking to the other all the way up to the president or they frankly were covering it up and i don't know frankly how you want to categorize it but either way i think there are a lot of unanswered questions and i want to commend senator isakson. one of the most responsible and serious members of congress in the u.s. senate. i want to commend him for once again seriously trying to get to the bottom of this. this is a serious issue. american people deserve answers and by the way, the families of these slain american heros deserve for the president and for the administration to speak to them straightforward and let them know what is going on and what has happened and right now
7:08 pm
they are not getting that as well. >> thank you very much. thank you both. >> thank you,. >> geraldo: believe it or not, folks, actually good news out of libya today. hundreds in benghazi and in tripoli the capital city answering the called of their chiefs of staff to hand over their weapons. to hand over following popular outrage against the armed militias following the murders of ambassador stevens and h his three brave colleagues. sadly they represent just a tiny fraction of those in private hands in that chaotic country. coming up, more on benghazi gate. plus, presidential candidate roseanne barjuc bar on why shes fighting to stop the federal crackdown and medical marijuana. alannah stewart. wait until you see the speedos. and former republican governor charlie crist joins us around

>> geraldo: back live with just 38 days until the election, president obama maintains his 6% lead in the gallup you daily tracking poll. he is up 50% to 44% for governor romney. rasmussen has it much tighter, though. has the president up by just two points, 48 to 46 for mr. romney. could the spreading benghazi gate scandal slow the president's momentum? let's ask former governor charlie crist of the crucial battleground state of florida. governor crist it in tampa. mario diaz was in miami. governor crist, my mom says hi. still remembers you fondly when you dropped by her 85th birthday. i have to say governor rick scott is sending her love

letters. i don't know, man. out of sight, out of mind. you got to get back into the game. >> your mother is a great lady and i was honored to be at her birthday and i want to thank you publicly for come doing carol and my wedding about four years ago. it was nice to have is you in st. peter's. thank you for the invitation. >> geraldo: you are great couple and i appreciated being with us. what about benghazi gate? does it have legs in florida? >> i don't think we know yet. i really don't. until you get answers to some of the questions i have seen you pose o on the segment befoe i don't think you can answer that question whether it will have an impact or not. people are concerned about things certainly happening overseas but things happening here at home. they are concerned about the economy. people have been talking about that during the entire campaign. i think that is where the primary focus will continue to be in the next 38 days before the election. >> geraldo: do you think medicare for example far outweighs an issue like
7:14 pm
benghazi gate? >> i know medicare is incredibly important particularly in a state like florida as you know such a significant senior population in this state. even if you are not a senior you care about making sure that your parents or grandparents continue to have the kind of benefits they need to maintain their health and make sure are that they can pay their bills around the needs that they need attended to are met in fact. and so i think that is going to be an enormously important issue going forward. we have the debates coming up shortly. three in the presidential. one for the vice presidential candidates. those are going to be significant as well. the first one coming up just wednesday night. >> geraldo: do you think the debates could be a game changer? >> anything is possible. an awful lot of people i'm sure you are going to be tuning in particularly to the first debate and i think, though, that that these are two pretty seasoned competitors in the president and duf governor romy and i think people will be watching to see what the candidates have to say. you know, if somebody makes a
7:15 pm
mistake or trips in some way, that can have an impact. but i don't know that it is going to change a whole lot. we'll have to watch and see. >> are you a democrat now? going to run for governor against rick scott? >> i'm an independent and i'm doing everything i can to try to get president obama reelect. >> geraldo: same question as an independent. going to run for governor again? >> i'm not focus the on that. what i'm focused on is trying to help president obama. i think this is a pivotal election in our nation's history and most people feel that way. people really are tuned in to the race and thank you for your great coverage of providing more information as each day passes. but i think that the outcome of this election will make a huge determination on the future of florida and the future of america. >> geraldo: who how do you deal, you are such a good person. we hold you in such high regard. how do you feel being accused of being a traitor politically
7:16 pm
and all that? >> that is okay. that is part of the polic pricf telling the truth. and if people want to have the accusations and personalle ad hominem attacks just because you are speaking from the heart. i have the right to tell what i feel. i couldn't sit by and not speak from my heart and tell people how i feel because i have got ton know this man. i have gotten to know president obama. one of the first things he did after he got sworn in was come to florida and it was right when our economy was going off a cliff and it started the september before in '08. he came here in february of '09 and was talking about the recovery act and help our teach evers and firefighters and people that really needed help and as governor i could see this coming. i saw the hole we had in our budget and he was here trying to get this pass sod that it would help not only florida but all of our states and it did
7:17 pm
help our state and then two years later we had this enormous spill in the gulf of mexico, the bp spill. yet again the president comes down to help florida. he didn't see a red state or blue state or then a republican governor, he saw people who needed help and came down and his administration. i mean the vice president was here secretary of homeland security. he was here. >> geraldo: i'm up against a hard break. love to carolyn and you. thanks is for coming on tonight. i enjoyed seeing you again. >> me pleasure and hello to your mother and your bride. thank you you. >> geraldo: coming up, roseanne barr and willie davis on what happens if the packers lose the title because of the bad call by the replacement refs. all that, after this.

7:22 pm
they made a rush to judgment. the fact is when it happened they didn't know what happened. no one knows immediately. what you know is that people are dead and so what you have to do is step back and investigate but they jumped out here and they should not have done that. >> there is no inkling of dishonesty in the obama administration and this has the stink of that. >> i think the spin was the sin here. i think the tragedy of an american ambassador being murdered it was and the other three gentlemen who were with him is outrageous. in normal times that would be front page story every day and all be up in arms and a bipartisan effort. in the middle of the political campaign muscle we are having discussions like this. i think we need to get to the bottom of it and we need to protect our embassies. any country which won't protect our ambassador which is like our flag and representty of our president and our country we should get out of there. >> there should be draconian
7:23 pm
reaction. >> the new government there has to investigate it or let us investigate it. they probably won't. and they got to get to the bottom of this and find who did this and treat them as murderers. >> we carry the water for nato on this. if we are going to be honest about this we need to dial this back and see how you we got here and the fact is now america is being blamed for what is should have been a group operation. we now have enemies we in talled a government we don't know who these people are. we obviously cannot trust them and yet we put our people in the middle of that. >> geraldo: doesn't that reflect on president obama's polyvis-a-vis libya, maybe the entire arab world? >> i think this was a bipartisan betrayal. democrats and republicans said we should go in and invade this country. he had his friends as well. and that left a bad taste in a lot of people's mouths. i want to get to the bottom of this so we have no more dead
7:24 pm
americans and no more dead libyans. >> two things occurred here. one is we didn't do anything initially. we were tied down to two wars that are very unpopular. second what happened is because our military is so sophisticated nobody else could do it by themselves. nato could not do that. italy and france wanted to go in there and had oil interests and didn't have the resources to get the job done so we get dragged into it. at the end of the day once we are dragged into it we can't pretend like we weren't a part of it. >> geraldo: we were a part of it. does it hurt the president politically santita? >> i hope not. i hope we keep the team in place. >> geraldo: no resignation for ambassador rice. how could she not know what my 93-year-old mom knows. the second time of referencing my mom tonight? >> she never should have gone forth until she had absolutely positive evidence. >> geraldo: should she resign.

7:32 pm
>> geraldo: mayor, your audio is breaking up. let me ask willie davis the same question. what do you think about the first three games getting thrown out? should they have an asterisk? what do you think should happen particularly to the last game? >> i'm sure delighted that it is finally settled and so i don't almost think of going back in time but it is very devastating to a team like green bay who lost the game, could very well be a factor down the line as they try to win this division. i just, you know, i have been around a long time and i have never seen anything more devastating. >> geraldo: what would vince lombardi have done? i'm reading your book "closing the gap." what would vince have done with a call like that one against seattle the other week? >> i with sa can say this, thes

7:35 pm
new approach? >> yes, i do. because i he think that, you know, it is tough, look, coach lombardi used to talk about it is a game of contact, it's physical, it's all those things but i don't think he ever had in mind what is this deliberate attempt to almost injure players or whatever. >> geraldo: i get you. willie, got to leave it there. we will fix those skypes. the new book closing the gap. i wanted to ask mayor james schmidt in the swing state of wisconsin how he thinks green bay is is going to vote. mayor youville to leave it until we fix the audio next time. thank both you gentleman. moving on, remember how in 2000 ralph nader ran as the green party candidate in florid in fd helped george w. bush narrowly defeat al gore in the sunshine state? could that happen again. well, roseanne barr if she has

have the right to vote for a party not owned by bankers and that is another reason why i'm running for president. >> so she is serious about this? >> serious enough to have gotten on to the ballot in at least, florida. i think her main objective is to keep her party aleve by raising enough votes and money. the peace and freedom party needs 45,000 registered voters on their platform in order to be on the ballot for the state elections in california in 2014. so she is using her name and the publicity to help garner the votes is. >> geraldo: could definitely cause barack obama to lose in florida if it is a tie in florida and she gets 20,000 votes i think nader got 40,000 or 50,000 votes he gave the election to george w. bush. >> wouldn't that be something on the raising, you know, pot legalization issue. >> geraldo: on the raising pot legalization issue. craig, thanks. millions were raised for the victims of the july movie massacre in colorado but they have received a grand total of
